Applejack, which I drew for TrotCon’s badge art. This version is a little more gussied up, and I used it for the buttons and keychains I sold in the Artist Acres. :B

Gala Twilight Sparkle. This pony was drawn for badge art for TrotCon, which was July 21-22. This version is a little more shinied and dressed up (ha!) and is the version I used on the buttons and keychains I had for sale. ^_^

Anthy is leaning back in Utena’s arm as a bright light glows over her chest, referencing the sword-drawing sequence in the anime. Rose petals fly around them, and there is a large rose crest stained glass window in the background.]
AH SHIT I forgot to share this here! I was commissioned to do this piece by a wonderful person I met at WisCon. ^_^

This should get all the reblogs… and maybe even tattoo it somewhere on me! :P
Oooh, helpful! Here’s the method I used before I got my grubby mitts on a ball winder.
This is a basically good method, but I really recommend using something much thicker than a knitting needle. It makes the yarn come out more smoothly and with less tangling. I used a paper towel tube with a notch at the top (for putting the tail end so it would disappear.
WHAT IS THIS SORCERY.

This is exactly how I look and feel when I get home after a con. LSP, you are my spirit animal.

Oooh, I love that pattern. It hides chips really well, too (did you do a top coat? I find it helps a lot to preserve them).
